Editorial endorsement: Nick Paro in the 50th Senate District

The open seat in the New York’s 50th Senate District presents a rare opportunity to send a new face to Albany. Republican Nick Paro, the Salina town supervisor from Liverpool, is running against Democrat Chris Ryan, from Geddes, a longtime Onondaga County legislator. The district includes the towns of Clay, Cicero, Camillus, Manlius, DeWitt, Geddes and Salina in Onondaga County and Fulton and Oswego in Oswego County.
The editorial board endorses Paro, a lawyer, on the strength of his advocacy for his Salina constituents and a specific agenda that lets voters know what he would do, if elected.
